I use my soft top a lot - even living here in the tropics. Rain showers can appear suddenly on the nicest of days and although I know I stay relatively dry over 40mph topless in the rain, traffic here is such that you're guaranteed to get slowed or stopped completely a few times while high tailing it home.

If I'm going to be far from home for an extended time, I carry both the top and the tonneau, and use the latter to button, chill out somewhere and wait out the shower. If the rain persists or I need to get going, I pop the top on and hit the road. I rigged my top to be very tight (it's pulled out a fastener more than once before I found a happy medium), so it doesn't flap and I actually like the way the car looks with it on.
